Report: 30 Babies Die From Abortions After 20 Weeks of Pregnancy Every Day
In the national debate over late-term abortions, new figures bring the practice of unborn children dying late in pregnancy into a stark reality.
A new Congressional Budget Office report shows unborn children who have passed 20 weeks of pregnancy are killed in abortions about 30 times every day. And with some states not fully reporting their abortion numbers and some states with abortion facilities that alter fetal age at the time of the abortion to make later abortions “comply” with state limits, that number is likely higher. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/07/08/report-30-babies-die-from-abortions-after-20-weeks-of-pregnancy-every-day/

“Hail Satan!”: The New “Pro-Choice” Mantra on Abortion
In the war between life and death, all eyes are on Texas as the Lone Star State legislature is poised to pass a sweeping late-term abortion ban. Gov. Rick Perry has pledged to sign the bill into law. The lines have been clearly drawn surrounding this progress toward equality and civil rights for pre-born Americans. Not surprisingly, as the pro-abortion side loses legislative battle after legislative battle, its “true colors” are coming into focus. Those colors are darker than many might have imagined.
During all civil rights struggles there occurs, it seems, some flashpoint in time that indelibly sears into the conscience of a culture, with clarity, the profound realization that one side represents good and the other side evil. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/07/08/hail-satan-the-new-pro-choice-mantra-on-abortion/
Wendy Davis Was Wrong: Women Don’t “Need” Late-Term Abortions
Before the Texas Legislature currently is H.B. 2: a conglomeration of several abortion-related bills with a myriad of provisions which was resurrected in a second special session following an eleventh-hour attempt to filibuster this effort by Senator Wendy Davis. Actions on this bill have been a whirlwind, with testimony citing supposed scientific evidence at hearing faster than RRA can vet these studies prior to the next hearing.
While RRA continues to research the many aspects of this legislation (and also, the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, a federal bill that would ban abortion after 20 weeks as well), the following is an excerpt from testimony by RRA Contributor Dr. Jacqueline C. Harvey. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/07/08/wendy-davis-was-wrong-women-dont-need-late-term-abortions/
